Thibaut Courtois mendapat panggilan ke Timnas Belgia untuk pertama kali sejak 2023. Kiper Real Madrid itu lega bisa membela lagi De Rode Duivels.
Belgium goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois says he explained his decision to refuse to play for the national team under former coach Domenico Tedesco "in front of the squad" after his return to the fold. The Real Madrid number one had a public falling out with Tedesco after not being named captain for a game against Austria in June 2023, saying he felt "insulted". But the 32-year-old is set to return on Thursday in a Nations League relegation play-off against Ukraine after being named in new coach Rudi Garcia's first squad. "When I arrived (at the training centre), it was good to be able to speak in front of the players because a lot of false things have been said," Courtois told reporters on Tuesday.

Rudi Garcia announced Friday his 26-man squad for Belgium's Nations League play-off tie against Ukraine, which included Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois for the first time since June 2023. In self-exile following a disagreement with then coach Domenico Tedesco after not being named captain for a match against Austria, Courtois will once again pull on Belgian colours. It is an inclusion that many expected after the 32-year-old stated his desire to return when Garcia was appointed as new head coach in January. The 61-year-old Frenchman said during his press conference Friday he had "decided to start afresh" as regards the star shot-stopper.
